18-12_Ultra vs. Rocna Anchor - what is the best anchor (sailing ZERO)

Ahoy,
in this episode we talk about anchors. We tested the ULTRA Anchor in comparison to the ROCNA Anchor. With both anchors we did exactly the same maneuvers to compare their performance.

First we anchored like we do all the time, backing up to set the anchor, but then we drove ZERO to the other side, pretending the wind or the currents are changing. That means we broke it free and reset it immediately. A situation which happens all the time and a good anchor should reset quickly.

Both anchors performed very well but in our experience the ULTRA outperformed the ROCNA with faster setting and resetting and more holding power by digging way deeper into the sand than the ROCNA did.
And on top of that the quality of the used materials and overall appearance is outstanding and the anchor looks like it is produced without making any compromises. Well Done!!

So the winner is the ULTRA ANCHOR!!!

Check out the video if you ever wanted to see how an anchor behaves when you are trusting your boat – your home – to it..
